I donno I don't really watch tv XD

Oh true, I do remember reading that as well, something about how people tend to grossly overestimate how much they burned during exercise so feel they "deserve" to eat as much as they want and also the body doesn't help by trying to force you to "eat back" more than you burned. And then the inevitable conclusion is that obviously exercising just doesn't work I guess.

_{even more obviously not considering any actual diagnosed medical issues}
